Yes, you listen to an ad but get a liver operator. Great especially on
your cell.
Note: May not work from all areas.

A liver operator??? Should I try to vent my spleen?

[George Grapman]

You got me. As punishment for my typo I will remove Rod from my kill
file for one day.

Liver operators are illegal without a license, stupid.

Wrong again, makes me retch in public and lowers the tone just a tad.

What if you are on the road and don't have a cellphone with browsing
capability?

I'd call someone who can look it up for me. I've had to pull over and call
someone to mapquest directions for me.

You can send a text msg to GOOGL (46645), with the kind of thing you're
looking for and the zipcode, for example 'pizza 90210', and you get an
immediate text back with the results. I haven't tried texting the exact
name of the place you're looking for but I'm guessing that would work too.
